Per the report, New York had been holding firm on a deal that included three guaranteed years and a team option for a fourth. But the team caved to Kerr’s wishes late Tuesday, when it was reported the Golden State Warriors were going to make one last push for him.

Per Yahoo! Sports:

Within the Knicks organization, there was a sense a deal with Kerr wouldn’t get done until the organization met that concession. For a franchise that has long shown little inhibition in delivering lucrative management and coaching contracts, this seems to be a far more restrained negotiation process on New York’s part.

Kerr is still reportedly deciding between the Knicks and the Warriors, though New York has remained the frontrunner throughout due to Kerr’s relationship with team president Phil Jackson. Golden State has the stronger roster to work with and is closer to Kerr’s California home.

The Warriors whiffed on Stan Van Gundy, who accepted a job as coach of the Detroit Pistons. They could be close to missing out on Kerr, too.

Coaches salaries don't affect the salary cap so who cares if they guarantee all four years. If he gets fired its not like the organization has to protect itself from embarrassment. They've already cornered the market in that department.

Barbara handsdown. I thought harden was the catalyst for these horrendous wardrobes but clearly Westbrook is in a league of his own. Trailing not to far behind is d wade with his high water skinny jeans exposing those a shy ankles lol
